De Kwetsbare Democratie

From the library I borrowed a compilation of essays on politics. It's called "de Kwetsbare Democratie" and contains a wide variety of articles from Adam Smith, Aristoteles, Marx etc. Very interesting; many of the papers are famous (the End of History for example) but I never read them.
